Embodiment
Push input device 20 shown in Fig. 1 is provided with operating body 2 above base station 1.The central portion of operating body 2 is supported by fulcrum member 3, thus operating body 2 is swing freely by fulcrum member 3 supporting.Fulcrum member 3 be operating body 2 is supported the bolster for rotating freely or be fixed on operating body 2 central portion and can the leaf spring etc. of the torsion bar of wrench deformation or the central portion of support operational body 2.Clipping between the side 2a of fulcrum member 3 and base station 1 of operating body 2 is provided with compression sensor 10.
As shown in Figure 3, compression sensor 10 is provided with actuator 12 in the inside of housing 11.The material that actuator 12 is out of shape freely by silicon isowarping is formed as circular plate shape, and peripheral part 12a is fixed in housing 11.Be integrally formed with projection 13 at the central part of actuator 12, projection 13 is given prominence to from the peristome 11a of housing 11.
Strainmeter 14 is fixed with as test section at the lower surface of actuator 12.Fig. 4 illustrates an example of the testing circuit that compression sensor 10 is subsidiary.Fig. 4 illustrates and is provided with two play the strainmeter 14 of identical characteristics example for the deformation of actuator 12.But strainmeter 14 also can be one, it also can be more than three.
In the testing circuit shown in Fig. 4, each strainmeter 14 is connected in series with fixed resistance R and is formed with two portions of connecting.In a series connection portion wherein, fixed resistance R side joint ground, and apply voltage vcc to strainmeter 14 side, and in another series connection portion, strainmeter 14 side joint ground, and apply voltage vcc to fixed resistance R side.And, the intermediate potential between the strainmeter 14 in each series connection portion and fixed resistance R being applied to differential amplifier 15, obtaining as detecting the output voltage V exported from differential amplifier 15.
As shown in Figure 3, the change to the output voltage V during pressing force F0 that raised 13 of compression sensor 10 applies towards housing 11 is represented by the line chart of Fig. 5.
When with pressing force F0 push projection 13, the actuator 12 of circular plate shape is out of shape in the mode of its central part downward in convex form, and each strainmeter 14 extends thus resistance value rises.Therefore, output voltage V rises along with pressing force F0 and increases.
As shown in Figure 5, if the scope of the power F0 applied to compression sensor 10 to be set to f0 ~ fm (power during f0 is zero), then, in this detection actuating range, output voltage V rises to vm continuously from v1.If exert all one's strength, F0 declines from fm, then utilize the elastic force of actuator 12 self to eliminate strain, output voltage V is reduced to v1 from vm.
It should be noted that, in Figure 5, although output voltage V changes in the mode of linear function relative to the change of power F0, output voltage V also can change relative to the change of power F0 curved shape.
In the push input device 20 shown in Fig. 1, compression helical spring 4 has been clamped as elastic component of exerting pressure, from compression helical spring 4 to the opposite side 2b of the operating body 2 applying fa that exerts pressure upwards clipping between the opposite side 2b of fulcrum member 3 and base station 1 of operating body 2.By this fa and apply towards anticlockwise power to operating body 2 using the supporting-point of fulcrum member 3 as fulcrum of exerting pressure, thus the projection 13 of the side 2a of operating body 2 to compression sensor 10 is utilized to press.
Consequently, as shown in (A), (B) of Fig. 6, when not having External Force Acting in operating body 2, utilize the above-mentioned fa of exerting pressure and raised 13 pressing force F0 applied to compression sensor 10 are set in the mid point fn of the detection actuating range between starting point f0 and terminal fm, output voltage V is set in the mid point vn between its starting point v1 detecting actuating range and terminal vm.Although mid point vn is that the point of 1/2 between the starting point v1 of detection actuating range and terminal vm is more satisfactory, mid point vn is not limited to the point of 1/2.
In the push input device 20 shown in Fig. 1, do not have External Force Acting when operating body 2, the output voltage V of compression sensor 10 is in mid point vn.
As shown in Figure 1, if with the side 2a of operating physical force Fa pressing operation body 2, then, as shown in (A) of Fig. 6, the pressing force F0 acting on projection 13 rises from mid point fn towards fm, and output voltage V slowly increases from mid point vn towards terminal vm.The operating physical force Fa applied to the side 2a of operating body 2 if reduce gradually, then output voltage V reduces from terminal vm towards mid point vn.
If with the opposite side 2b of operating physical force Fb pressing operation body 2, then as shown in (B) of Fig. 6, the pressing force acting on projection 13 reduces from mid point fn towards f0, and output voltage V reduces from mid point vn towards starting point v1.
In the push input device 20 shown in Fig. 1, when applying operating physical force Fa to the side 2a of operating body 2 and applying operating physical force Fb to opposite side 2b, the output voltage V of a compression sensor 10 demonstrates and clips mid point vn and towards the change of mutual different directions.Thereby, it is possible to use a compression sensor 10 distinguish and detect these two operating physical forces of operating physical force Fa and operating physical force Fb.Further, can distinguish and detect the change of the change of the size of operating physical force Fa and the size of operating physical force Fb.
In addition, even if the projection 13 of actuator 12 is only connected to operating body 2, when with the opposite side 2b of operating physical force Fb pressing operation body 2, projection 13 also can reset into original state by the elastic restoring force of actuator 12.Thus, do not need the projection 13 of bonding compression sensor 10 and the lower surface of operating body 2, do not need to worry projection 13 and the bonding stripping etc. between operating body 2 yet.
In the embodiment shown in Fig. 1, the housing 11 of compression sensor 10 is fixed on base station 1, with the lower surface push projection 13 of the side 2a of operating body 2.On the other hand, in the variation shown in Fig. 2, be fixed with the housing 11 of compression sensor 10 at the lower surface of the side 2a of operating body 2, projection 13 is pressed against base station 1.In the variation shown in Fig. 2, be also provided with compression helical spring 4 as elastic component of exerting pressure, the embodiment shown in exporting change with Fig. 1 is identical.
